Jordan Hill (singer)

Jordan Hill (born Whitney Jordan Hill) is an American singer-songwriter.

Hill was originally signed by producer David Foster to his own label 143 Records, a division of Warner Music Group. Her first song, "Remember Me This Way", which was produced by Foster, became the film Casper's theme song and was released as a single.

Early life and career
Born in Knoxville, Tennessee, Jordan Hill and her family later relocated to Los Angeles, where she completed her studies at the Hamilton Academy of Music and supported herself by playing at clubs and small venues.

She met David Foster in 1994 after performing at the producer’s California home. The pair understood each other almost immediately, and Foster wrote Hill's debut single “Remember Me This Way”. It saw the light in 1995 via Foster’s 143 Records and was featured on the soundtrack for the feature film Casper.

Jordan Hill's self-titled debut album was then released on May 21, 1996, and was produced by David Foster, Greg Charley, Rhett Lawrence, Jeff Pescetto, SoulShock & Karlin and Mario Winans. Hill covered many songs, such as Cheryl Lynn's "Got to Be Real", Oleta Adams' "I Just Had to Hear Your Voice", and Lisa Stansfield's "Make It Right".

The lead single of the album, "For the Love of You", produced by Foster and Winans, became a hit both on the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B/Hip-Hop charts. However, the remix version by Tony Moran became her biggest hit, entering the Top 10 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts.

The second single, released only in the UK was "How Many Times" (which was later covered by Aretha Franklin) and the third single, also a UK exclusive, was "Too Much Heaven", a cover of the Bee Gees song and featured Barry Gibb singing backup. Due to a lack of support and promotion, she left the label.

Hill has worked with some notable artists, such as the Bee Gees and Jim Brickman, whose 1999 Top 10 adult contemporary hit "Destiny" featured Hill on vocals, along with Billy Porter. She resumed her solo career in 2012 with the festive single “Someday at Christmas,” reaching Number 11 on the Adult Contemporary chart.

As of 2014, Hill was writing and recording her second album, which was initially scheduled for release in 2015, but has yet to be released.
